Jiaohe Piaohé Tourism Co., Ltd. is a key investment-attracting enterprise in Jiaohe, with an investment of 10 million yuan. It is a large-scale tourism group company primarily focused on rafting, integrating leisure, entertainment, sightseeing, summer retreats, vacationing, business, dining, accommodation, and winter sports.

The Piaohé Rafting Area has significant geographical advantages and convenient transportation. Two major traffic arteries that run across Jiaohe—the National Highway Yujian Line and the Chang-Hun Expressway—pass through the rafting area. The entire rafting zone is located right at the junction of Jiaohe, Dunhua, and Huadian cities, enjoying a prominent hub position that greatly facilitates visitors’ travel for sightseeing.

The average width of the Piaohé River is 25 meters, with an average depth of 0.65

meters and an average flow rate of 7.5 cubic meters per second. The rafting section spans 32 kilometers and is divided into upper, middle, and lower segments. The river water is crystal clear, and the landscapes on both banks are picturesque. It is one of the few unpolluted cold-water rivers in Northeast China. With moderate waterfalls and an average gradient of 3.6,

the river features both rapids and calm stretches, making it an excellent destination for eco-tourism.

The Piaohé River area is entirely nestled within the Changbai Mountain Range, where mountain-water scenery and pastoral views blend organically, characterized by "greenery, wonder, beauty, and tranquility." The dense forests along the banks are home to nearly a hundred species of wild animals such as bears, deer, grouse, and pheasants,

with much of the ecological environment remaining in its pristine state. Lush forests, rugged rocks, towering ancient trees, and fragrant blossoms line the riverbanks, while the winding and crystal-clear waters present a continuous array of spectacular scenes that are a feast for the eyes, leaving visitors “lost in the charm and unaware of the way home.”

It is truly a landscape painting where “boats drift on the water and people sail through a painting,” offering a return to nature, recreation in the wild, endless joy, and living up to its well-deserved reputation as the “First Drift in Eastern China”!
